Suckfest 2007 can draw to a close with fervent rapidity in my opinion. A year mired in crushing heartache, unpleasant surprises, half and mis-truths, pain (intentionally inflicted and otherwise), realizations of massive misconceptions and naivety on my part, resulting divisions (some imaginary, some not), career dissatisfaction, eye-opening awareness of a plethora of taradiddles that called to question years of pleasant comfortable certainties, panicked evacuations, subsequent fears, and ashy unpleasantness have made for an emotional wreckage that could have broken me completely in two.
